The Torah says, "You shall not round off the peyos of your head" (Leviticus 19:27). The word peyos refers to sideburns

A lot of people are doing this now, I’m like wtfffff

Wailing wall
It is a remnant of the ancient wall that surrounded the Jewish Temple's courtyard, and is arguably the most sacred site recognized by the Jewish faith outside of the Temple Mount itself

Men are on one side, women on the other, during Bar Mitzvah, girls would reach over and throw candy at the men

Deut 6:8 “Tie them to your hands and wear them on your forehead as reminders.”
Tephillin are two small cube-shaped boxes made of leather with long straps attaching them. The tefillin worn on the forehead is divided into four compartments, one for each scroll and the one worn on the arm contains just one sectionand all four Scriptures are written on one parchment. The whole thing is sitched up so the scrolls cannot be seen. They are ALL hand written by Rabbi and extremely expensive
Now I’m in Palestine; their own ruling / area / Israelis are not allowed in and Palestinians are not allowed out.
I’m in Bethlehem. Not a clean place it’s night and day. This is where Jesus was born.
The Church of the Nativity is considered to be the oldest continuously operating Christian church in the world. There is a gold star that is considered to be located over the cave that marks the birthplace of Jesus of Nazareth. There were over 400 people standing in line JUST to touch it and stuff

Museum of Israel, where parts of the dead sea scroll is located.

Last night in Tel Aviv, I still had 3 days in Israel when bombing started. After I left, it was declare a yellow zone. This is Mediterranean Sea

This was the Yad Vashem:Israel's official memorial to the Jewish victims of the Holocaust. I spent 1.5 hours there and it still wasn’t enough.

Side note.
I went with 10 people on vacation and these were all retired people at middle high income. I went to Vietnam, Egypt and now Israel and Jordan with them. It's an honor to be invited as I'm like the youngest kid out of the gang. It wasn't a huge issue back then, but DAMN, now, EVERYONE of them are FACEBOOK WHOREESSSS. They are all into taking pictures with their compact camera, DSLR and iphones. Some guy had an iphone5 and couldn't enjoy himself because he forgot his external battery. We had to go all the way back.
second, WIFI is like HUGE for these people, all they wanted is to 1) check on their stocks 2) post pictures on WIFI. I had spend an hour in the Holocaust museum, whereas this couple spent 5 minutes so they can go and sit at the cafe to post pics on FB. I found that extremely sad as their life resolves around FB.
this is it, until next time.
